Intercultural cities: good practice examples – Mediation is a priority in Barcelona

The editor of eCCO Magazine would like to draw readers’ attention to the article published by the Council of Europe: “Intercultural cities: good practice examples – Mediation is a priority in Barcelona

The website of the Council of Europe published: “The Intercultural city aims at building its policies and identity on the explicit acknowledgement that diversity can be a resource for the development of the society.

The first step is the adoption (and implementation) of strategies that facilitate positive intercultural encounters and exchanges, and promote equal and active participation of residents and communities in the development of the city, thus responding to the needs of a diverse population. The Intercultural integration policy model is based on extensive research evidence, on a range of international legal instruments, and on the collective input of the cities member of the Intercultural Cities programme that share their good practice examples on how to better manage diversity, address possible conflicts, and benefit from the diversity advantage.

This section offers examples of intercultural approaches that facilitate the development and implementation of intercultural strategies.”
